Calculating the Interior Angles of a Polygon (Including Extension Problems)

(1)
A selection of problems around interior angles for students to solve. Follows on from the investigation into how side lengths link to angle sums. Leads into exterior angles and other problems. EDIT: The first 4 slides for part of an Always, sometimes, never questioning session that I haven't obviously highlighted. I am fully aware that trapezium's don't have right angles. The task is designed to illicit misconceptions! Apologies for forgetting to signpost!
